Male Female

I'm going to share with you about my favorite wild animal, which is the cheetah. So basically, they are mammals and they usually give birth to one or two cubs a year. About the places where you may encounter them, it's usually the savanna, which is also their habitat. These habitats are usually guarded by rangers as well as local authorities in Africa. I mean, in some parts of Africa, I do not know the exact location. Even though I really want to have a chance to meet a real cheetah, right now I am staying in a faraway land, so I couldn't get that chance. I can only observe them via television and magazines, which is a pity for me. Many people think that cheetahs are renowned for their speed. I mean, they can reach around 100 kilometers per hour. However, I would like to mention their cuteness because they are quite friendly towards people; they mean no harm to them, which is also the reason why I really want to interact with a real cheetah in the future.
